1. Create an account with Slush Pool

• Sign-up and wait for a confirmation email.
• Login to your account.

2. Configure Your Device

The login credentials for your miner look like this:

URL: stratum+tcp://zec.slushpool.com:4444
userID: userName.workerName

• Please note that we do not support Zcash addresses directly in the command. Use your Slush Pool userName instead.
• workerName is optional, if you do not provide any it’s fine. Our system will automatically create auto worker for you.

3. Register your Zcash payout address

Payout address is essential for Zcash payouts. Once you reach the minimum threshold, your rewards will be sent there. It means that you can start mining even without this address being registered; but it is highly recommended that you register it anyway.

Currently only Transparent addresses are supported so make sure it starts with “t”. Do not use Z addresses since they are not supported

• Go to: Payouts
• Set the mining address and submit
• Click on the confirmation link delivered to your email address
